Where on the earths surface is the sun hottest throughout the year?
A broad band along the equator is usually the hottest area of the earth throughout the year.
Is the distance from the sun always 100 AU?
No. The distance to the sun is approximately 1 AU. However, our actual distance to the sun varies by about 2% throughout the year.
How does the sun change throughout the year?
The rotation around the sun the cause a shift.
One astronomical unit averages about?
The Astronomical Unit (AU) is defined as the meandistance between the Earth and Sun.So even though that distance changes throughout the year, the AU doesn't change.1 AU = 149,597,870.7 km (92,955,807.3 miles)
Does the right ascension and declination of the star Arcturus change with the change of month or is it the same throughout the year?
Basically they stay the same, although over tens of thousands of years, they change slightly.
Does the days length change throughout the year because of earths tilt?
yes
Do the day lengths change throughout the year because of the earths tilt?
Yes. We could write a lot more, but yes is the answer.
Does the day lengths change throughout the year because of the earths tilt?
Yes/more at the north/south hemisphere zones but almost constant at the equator.

Yes/more at the north/south hemisphere zones but almost constant at the equator.

A broad band along the equator is usually the hottest area of the earth throughout the year.

What evidence is there that distance from the sun is not a cause of season?
There is a change in the amount of energy from the sun reaching the earth due to the elliptical nature of earths orbit around the sun, but the limits of this change are small compared to the effect of the tilt of the earths axis, and its tendency to remain parrallel throughout its orbit of the sun. For evidence, the fact that the northern and southern hemispheres have summer and winter at opposite times of the year from each other despite being exactly the same distance from the sun should be pretty convincing.
What causes the sun to rise at different time throughout the year?
beacuse of the earths rotation
What causes the periods of daylight and darkness to vary at different latitudes throughout the year?
earths tilt
If earths tilt didn't change would earth have seasons?
There would be no seasons on Earth if the Earth's axis had no tilt because throughout the year the Earth would get an equal amount of sun everywhere.
Explain the difference in the earths climate change when the earths orbit changes from elliptical to circular?
Earth's eccentricity Eccentricity is defined as the difference in shape between an ellipse and a perfect circle. In a similar fashion to Earth's obliquity, the more uniform Earth's orbit is (more like a perfect circle), the less difference there is in climate change throughout the year.
How does the earths orientation with respect to the sun change over the course of the year?
=What are the positions of the sun over a year???=
